"I was throwing everything, mixed in a couple of curveballs," Woodruff said. "I didn't think my stuff was that good, and it took me until about that fourth inning to really to get in groove and get everything over for a strike."

Vogt continues progressingCatcher Stephen Vogt was to seek a second opinion on a strained right shoulder that is threatening his availability for Opening Day. He attempted to resume throwing drills on Monday but had enough soreness that the Brewers shut him down again.

"I'm going in the right direction," Vogt said. "It's just not there yet. The pain was better than it was two weeks ago. It's just not ready to throw yet. I'm going to go get another doctor's eyes on it and see if he has any other ideas.

"If I had to tell you it was a 10 out of 10 pain two weeks ago, we're at about a four out of 10 now. We're definitely headed in the right direction. It just needs more time to heal before we try throwing again."

Vogt said the original diagnosis was that he would be sidelined anywhere from two to six weeks. After two weeks, he has had some progress, but not enough. Complicating his status is a non-guaranteed $3 million contract that could force a decision.

"That stuff's out of my control," Vogt said. "That's their decision. They have to do what they feel is best for this team, what's best to win in 2018. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to show the improvements I made this winter with the injury. Obviously, they have a decision to make, and I can't control that."

Vogt is penciled in to back up starter Manny Pina, with Jett Bandy and Christian Bethancourt next on the depth chart. The Brewers will likely keep two catchers to start the season.

Camp battleFirst baseman Jesus Aguilar, fighting for one of the final position player spots, hit a two-run home run off Matt Bush in the seventh inning. It was his second of the spring.

"He's facing a pretty good reliever there and got a fastball in the zone," Counsell said. "That's something he's really good at. He can hit. He's proven he's a Major League hitter."

Injury updatesCloser Corey Knebel followed Woodruff with a one-inning stint that eased any fears that his left knee was a problem. He removed himself in the middle of an inning on Saturday after a flareup of tendinitis he has dealt with for years. On Tuesday, he allowed a two-out run on a walk, stolen base and single, but he got his second strikeout to end the inning.

"When Corey gave up the run, I loved how it upset him a little bit, and the next hitter, I thought there was some intent to what he was doing," Counsell said. "It's very difficult to replicate the emotional situations Corey faces during games in Spring Training. I thought giving up a run kind of brought a little bit of that out, and it was good to see."
